For Toledo Opera General Director James M.

Thanks to the generous support of iHeart Media, this revitalized series makes opera more accessible, more engaging, and more deeply connected to the people we serve.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201ciHeart Media is proud to continue our partnership with Toledo Opera through the vibrant Opera \u2018Round Town series,\u201d said Taylor Booth, Market President of iHeart Media, Inc. \u201cThis initiative beautifully blends community engagement with world-class artistry, and we\u2019re honored to help bring these performances to neighborhoods across Toledo. Supporting the arts remains a cornerstone of our mission, and we\u2019re excited to help make opera more accessible, inspiring, and unforgettable for all.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe beautiful voices from the Toledo Opera surrounded by the natural beauty of Wildwood Preserve is just a perfect combination,\u201d said Trish Hausknecht, Manager of Community Engagement for Metroparks Toledo. \u201cThis is such an enjoyable evening. Park visitors bring their lawn chairs to the front of the Manor House, maybe a picnic basket too, and simply sit back, relax, and enjoy the sights and sounds of the beauty all around them.\u201d<\/p>\n
